Operating Instructions

Cycle Options

Appropriate options will automatically be displayed for each
cycle. The number of options selected will be displayed numeri-
cally on the Options button. Options can be added or deleted
before the cycle is started.
To adjust options, press the Options button to navigate to the
options screen. To add options, press the corresponding options
buttons. Selected options will be highlighted. To delete options,
press the corresponding options buttons again.
To protect your fabrics, not all options are available with every
cycle. If an option is not available with a particular cycle, it is
faded out. Occasionally, options in the same cycle will confl ict
with each other, such as Add Steam and Energy Saver. When
this happens, the option selected fi rst will cause the confl icting
option to not be selectable. After you have made the desired
adjustments, press the Back button to return to the home screen
or
START to begin the cycle.
NOTE
To change the options after the cycle starts, press
then press the Cycle Settings button. Adjust the settings and
press
START to resume the cycle.
Stain Treat
The Stain Treat option adds a special 10 minute soak/pre-
treat agitation before the main wash. It fi lls initially with
detergent and cold water to prevent protein stains from
setting, then the internal heater is activated to heat the
wash water to remove non-protein based stains. Can be
used with Prewash for the toughest stains.
Add Steam
Select this option to add approximately 20 minutes of tum-
bling in steam during the wash cycle. It is recommended
for heavily soiled loads to help enhance the release of
tough stains from fabrics after initial agitation.
NOTE
Steam may not necessarily be visible inside drum
during a steam cycle.
Steam may not be present during entire cycle.
IMPORTANT
If steam is selected, rinse temperatures will be elevated.
If washer is paused during a steam wash cycle, the door
will remain locked due to higher temperature in drum.
DO NOT force open - it will unlock upon cooling.
During a steam cycle you may notice steam exiting
from the rear vent of the washer - this is normal and
not cause for alarm.
PAUSE and
Pre-Wash
Select this option to add a short wash period prior to the
normal, colors, casual, active wear, whites, and heavy duty
cycles. Heavily soiled and stained loads will prewash in
cold water for 5 minutes. The water will drain and the load
will automatically advance to the selected wash cycle.
See Step 5 in the "Operating Your Washer" section in this
guide for details on adding detergent to the "Pre-Wash"
cup in the dispenser.
Extra Rinse
Use this option when additional rinsing is desired to remove
excess dirt and detergent. It is recommended for heavily
soiled loads or if household members have sensitive skin.
Extra Spin
Use this option to add minutes to the fi nal spin at the
selected Spin Speed. This will improve water extraction,
decrease drying time and save energy.
Delay Start
Select a wash time convenient to your schedule or during
off peak energy hours. Press the up and down arrow to
scroll to a desired delay time. The delay time selected will
be displayed and begin counting down when you select
START.
Energy Saver
The Energy Saver option reduces the warm water temper-
ature a few degrees to save energy.
